- Abstract
Nowadays, natural compounds are widely used worldwide for the treatment of human diseases and health disorders. However, I T. lutea i is also a source of phenolic compounds with a large spectrum of biological activities, including antioxidant, antiaging and anti-inflammatory effects, so positive pharmacodynamic synergies among the various components, acting on different targets, cannot be ruled out. Marine carotenoids exert strong antioxidant, restorative, antiproliferative and anti-inflammatory effects and can be used both as skin photoprotection to inhibit the negative effects of solar UV radiation and as nutraceutical/cosmeceutical ingredients to prevent oxidative stress-related diseases. A large number of marine bioproducts have been purified and identified from marine sources and have shown antioxidant properties and anti-inflammatory effects.
